Horizon view
Horizon from Dawson V
66.2993° S, 137.7313° W · cell 6DEK
- Highest horizon point
- Dawson V: 11.0° above the horizontal, 2.84 km away at azimuth 118°.
- Farthest visible point
- 34.1 km away at azimuth 346°, 3.6° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 6,292 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 22.3° under it at azimuth 179°. At 2026-10-22 11:06:04 UTC, when this page was served.
- Resolution
- Terrain resolution: about 1.9 km, the global LOLA terrain tier of 16 pixels per degree; relief smaller than that, near or far, is smoothed, and the model does not include boulders or other surface hazards.
